SYSTEM WILL CROSS THE AREA AND PULL A LITTLE BIT MORE MOISTURE OUR
WAY. FOR THE REST OF NEXT WEEK...A SIMILAR PATTERN TO THE ONE FOR
THE PAST FEW DAYS IS SHOWING UP IN THE MODELS. THIS WOULD MEAN A
SURGE OF MOISTURE WILL PUSH BACK INTO EASTERN IDAHO AND INCREASE
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE. FOR NOW...WE ARE EASING IN THAT
DIRECTION AND WILL CONTINUE TO WATCH TO SEE HOW THINGS UNFOLD.
